Great spot! A lot of great food around if you like to venture!
Lad prao is located right outside of downtown and is a great little neighborhood.
DO NOT TAKE A CAB, it can take up to an hour and a half to reach downtown in peak hours. Trust me, my wife and i made the mistake.
Just use the MRT (subway) located 100 meters away from the apartment. Station Lad Prao, 12 minutes to sukhumvit, downtown.
The amenities are also very nice, the unit is on a high floor, and you get fantastic views from downtown Bangkok.
Enjoy!
